Today is the start of the Simbang Gabi. For my non-Filipino readers, this custom is also called Misa de Gallo which is a Spanish phrase that means midnight mass. As practiced, the mass is celebrated for nine days before dawn starting on December 16 to December 24.
Our parish’s mass schedule is at 4 AM. Fortunately, there is a mass celebrated at 5 AM in our subdivision’s club house which is just some blocks away from our house. Hence, I have attended the first mass this morning.
Merry CHRISTmas!
